Astrid “Hold up‘ What era do you think we’re m, are you seriously still pulling that outdated arranged

Cliff three years ago, we have nothing to do with each other now!”
“I did ask you, and you agreed Magee claimed with righteous indignation
“What?” Astrid was speechless, “I wasn’t even born then, how could I have agreed?”
At this, Magee chuckled, “1 patted your mom’s belly and asked, “Honey, if you agree to marry the kidd
from the Cliff family, stay quiet If you disagree, kick mommy’s belly.‘ You didn’t react at all doesn’t that
mean you agreed?”

“Alright. Star, I’m done pulling your leg I wont make you marry someone you don’t like. I just want you
to take a look at him, after all, the Cliffs have been good to you, right?” Magee turned to look at Astrid,
“Star, I never understood why you’re so against the Cliff’s boy Isn’t Hawthorne much better than that
messed–up kid from the Cornetts?”
“Dad, you’ll never understand how I feel Astrid wrapped her arm around his, her thoughts drifting back
to past events, she changed her mind, I’ll go see him tomorrow.”
“Good, Star, I thank you on behalf of the Cliffs.” Magee gently stroked Astrid’s hair, his eyes filled with
love, “How’s showbiz treating you? Want to come home and take over the family business?”
1 appreciate that, but no thanks! I’m having a blast, and I’m not interested in your family business!”
Astrid strutted into the house with a haughty air.
Magee rubbed his nose and heaved a long sigh.
What’s the point of having so many kids?
When it comes down to it, no one wants to take over the family business!
Magee put on his straw hat and shouted towards the mansion, “Star, do you want to go fishing with
me?”
A few seconds later, Astrid’s voice came from the house, “No.”
Magee was speechless.
Trying to beat jet lag, Astrid went to bed as soon as she got home.
A few hours later, Elio and Roman’s plane landed at the airport.

only track her leaving the airport, her sports car disappeared like a ghost after that, left no trace! I can’t
even locate her!”
Tknew you wouldn’t be able to help me, I’ll find a way to contact her myself.” Elio hung up the phone,
looked down at Roman, squatted down and said, “Roman, do you want to see Astrid?” Roman nodded.
Elio smiled, “She should be asleep right now, let’s go to bed, and we’ll see her when we wake up.”
“Okay.” The thought of seeing Astrid soon made Roman very excited.
Roman jumped up in excitement, his adorable antics were simply irresistible.
